Folks,
It's that time of year for me, late spring throughout the summer I have high demands to keep a raspberry blonde on tap.
Years past I'd simply secondary and add the fruit in and carefully rack to kegs with a hop bag around the autosiphone but last year I retired all my carboys to meads & sours and started using a brewhemoth for all my beer.
I don't see any problem adding fruit after primary, my only concern is how to filter all the little fruit bits out when racking to a keg. I'd appreciate input from anyone else here that has a conical and also does fruit beers. I get pretty high demand for raspberry, cherry & blackberry beers so I'd like to tackle the conceptual issue and do a test run asap!
